Engineering the Future of Protection
North America Protect is a North American manufacturer of advanced technical textiles, combining innovation and technical expertise in Raleigh, North Carolina, with state-of-the-art manufacturing in Puebla, Mexico. Together, these operations develop and produce high-performance fabric solutions that enable PPE manufacturers to create safer, lighter, and more durable protective apparel for the world’s most demanding environments.
Built on a foundation of innovation, material science, and engineering excellence, we are redefining protective performance through advanced textile technologies and collaborative partnerships. Every fabric we produce is engineered to deliver uncompromising protection, exceptional comfort, and proven reliability in the most critical environments.
Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Puebla is strategically located close to Mexico’s established garment manufacturing industry. This allows protective fabrics and finished PPE garments to be produced within the same regional supply chain, supporting closer collaboration, faster product development, and more responsive manufacturing.
For US brands and end users, our Mexico operation provides a compelling nearshoring alternative to long-distance global supply chains. Customers benefit from shorter lead times, improved visibility, greater flexibility, and dependable access to high-performance protective textiles manufactured close to the US market.
Our Puebla operation is also ideally positioned to serve customers throughout Mexico and the wider Latin American market. By combining local manufacturing and regional technical support with the expertise of the EUROPROTECT Group, we can provide fabric solutions engineered to meet both North American and European protective performance requirements. This dual-standard capability is particularly valuable across Latin America, where PPE specifications may reference NFPA, ASTM, CSA, EN, or ISO standards depending on the country, industry, and end-use application.
Working alongside PPE manufacturers, garment producers, brands, and end users across North America and Latin America, we provide innovative woven and knitted fabric solutions for industrial safety, emergency response, defense, utilities, oil and gas, and other high-risk applications. Our products are designed to meet demanding international performance standards while helping customers respond to evolving safety, comfort, sustainability, and supply-chain requirements.
As part of the EUROPROTECT Group—a globally recognized leader in protective textile innovation with manufacturing operations across Europe and Asia—North America Protect combines international expertise with a dedicated North American presence.
Our Innovation, Technical Service, Sales, and Distribution Center in Raleigh supports customers throughout the United States and Canada. Working as one integrated team with our Puebla manufacturing operation, it connects product development, technical support, commercial service, and regional production.
Our Mexico operation combines modern weaving, dyeing, finishing, inspection, and laboratory capabilities with experienced technical teams and disciplined process control. Supported by vertically integrated manufacturing, ISO-certified quality systems, and continuous investment in research and development, we deliver consistent quality, dependable supply, and world-class technical performance.
From flame-resistant and multi-hazard protection fabrics to advanced moisture-management and high-tenacity textile solutions, every product is engineered to exceed expectations in safety, durability, and wearer comfort.
At North America Protect, we believe protection does not begin with the garment—it begins with the fabric.
